Graduate school is now a reality


I did it. I finally did it.

After what felt like years of studying, writing essays, preparing admissions applications, and waiting for acceptance letters, I finally made my decision. After careful consideration, I decided to pursue my MBA at the University of St. Thomas with a concentration in International Business.

I visited with my advisor yesterday (who also happens to be the associate dean of the Cameron Business School) and registered for classes for the Fall term. The entire program will take 4 semesters to complete (36 total credits), and while I know I will be exhausted and overworked, I could not be more excited to be a student again. I’m also beyond happy I get to continue working – cash flow’s gotta come from somewhere.

I begin classes August 20th and will have very long work/school days on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Looks like I may have to change the title of this blog to “MBA Graduate, Now What?”

;) Nahh.
